Welcome,

It is with much pride that I welcome you to Fogo, Newfoundland, Canada.

Fogo is a small out port on Fogo Island with a population of approximately 800. We have a fascinating history which goes back to the early 1700's.  Founded on the fish and seal trade, we still maintain our close ties to the sea.

Our well-known landmark, Brimstone Head, is considered one of the Four Corners of the Earth.  Other attractions enjoyed by visitors from around the world include the Bleak House Museum, the Old School House Museum, and Lions Den Trail. One of the first Marconi wireless stations was built here in 1912.  

The Brimstone Head Folk Festival, held during August, highlights our local musical talent and is enjoyed by one and all.

Come to Fogo and see what a picturesque, peaceful, and friendly place it is.  
                                        Sincerely,

                                                       Andrew Shea
